Re: BM Dresses Thread

Daisybride - that's why we chose it! I went to a trunk show with my MOH and 1 BM...the two pickiest in the wedding party! And we all agreed that that was the best choice - it's also a daytime wedding, so I wanted something a little more casual. But I figure they can wear them again. But there is the best part (or maybe the selfish part)...my sister hates dresses and she is my MOH, so I may just inherit this one...hahaha. At the very least I can borrow it once or twice!

Re: BM Dresses Thread

Ok eroxgirl, I love your dress so much that I'm thinking about changing my mind about the one that I picked! I'm afraid mine might be too 'cutesy'. My sister is 42 and my sister-in-law is like 35, so I'm not sure that the dress I picked would be appropriate for them. I still love it though and may stick with it anyway. But the one you picked is more sophisticated which I like. I'm going to have to find it and have the girls try it on. I'd probably get it in sky blue.

Hope you don't mind me copying!

Re: BM Dresses Thread

I was going to copy you first, of course I don't mind!!

My bms all loved the pic of your dress, but I had 2 of them stand next to each other, one in your dress and one in mine. They felt that yours looked more like a *bridesmaids* gown than the one we went with. Of course, they haven't seen their gown in pink yet so that comment might have been a bit premature!

Re: BM Dresses Thread

I was going to get the dress that I picked in pink too (with white top), so that's another reason why I think it might look too cutesy. Almost like an Easter dress! But I think yours will look great in pink. The style is definately more 'grown-up'.

Re: BM Dresses Thread

I saw yours in pink in the second store I went to...I think my dress will be the same exact same shade...it will be so pretty!! (well, if you like pink, that is -- some of my BMs don't but but OH WELL!

)

Re: BM Dresses Thread

I have a huge bridal party, so I thought seperates would make everyone happy! The color is victorian lilac. Here are a few that the girls chose. All 12 girls got to pic their own. It was like a fasion show at the bridal store.

The first one is MOH. In the lilac color.
